Raini’s wish that her brother achieved success in his endeavors has come true. And she could not be more proud of him.
The singer does not hesitate to gush about her sibling on social media. She pours love and affection on him on her Instagram time and again.
In one such instance, Raini wrote a lengthy post on Instagram in April 2020, expressing her happiness in what Rico had done in life.

“It’s one thing to watch your shy, little brother discover his passion in life, but it’s another to watch him get to bring it to life,” she began the caption, praising the person he was and the dedication he put into his work.
She then reminisced about the last decade of his life, detailing the effort and hard work he had done during that time.
Rico had had a tough time balancing acting and school during the last 11 years. She remembered him getting up at 4:30 in the morning and going to set for filming.
Then, he attended school for three hours and continued work for eight more hours.
He did this until he graduated high school, both in real life and in reel life on Modern Family.
Rico also acted alongside some of the greats while very young and held his own doing so. And in this process, he won 5 Emmys.
Raini was proud not just of his bigger accomplishments, but also of the little ones. She further talked about how he went from driving a golf cart to a real car, tried sushi, and traveled the world.
But he always returned home and expressed his gratitude for his achievements.
“I am so incredibly proud of you,” she wrote as she ended the post, mentioning it was just the beginning for him. She was excited to see where life took Rico.
